1969 Chevrolet Chevelle

It is amazing how, when it comes to classic cars, two letters and three numbers can instantly open up a floodgate of memories and a rush of adrenaline. Fully repainted in this sleek Cortez Silver, complete with dual black side stripes, this 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Tribute looks every bit the boulevard bruiser as it would have half a century ago. Inside, we find a nicely redone black vinyl interior. A split front bench seat provides ample room for both driver and passenger, while a three-spoke power-assisted wheel sits just ahead of a three-pod gauge cluster featuring a big 120-mph speedometer. An AM/FM stereo offers soundtrack options, but the truth is that the big Hurst T-bar shifter provides more entertainment than speakers ever could. Under that expansive cowl hood, we find a clean engine bay with a big 396-cubic-inch V-8. A chrome air cleaner and matching valve covers contrast with the old-school primer-orange block and intake manifold. Fed by a single four-barrel Quadrajet carburetor, this big block does away with spent gases through a set of stock-style exhaust manifold and dual exhaust capped off with a pair of sweet-sounding aftermarket mufflers to give this Chevelle its muscle car rumble. That power is routed through a tried-and-true four-speed manual transmission before heading to the 12-bolt rear end, which transfers those ponies to the pavement via a set of 14-inch SS wheels shod with BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires.
